Welcome to Season 5 of 'The Conversation with Nadine Matheson' 🎉
"No one's asking for the work. No one was asking for Time Jump… but I still have the faith that it will pay off. And I love writing and I think it's the thing I'm best at. So to not do it is you're cheating yourself."
Adam Simcox
Author and filmmaker Adam Simcox joins Nadine to celebrate the publication of his new novel Time Jump,a time-travelling psychological thriller set between 1997 and 2026. They discuss his journey from law student to filmmaker to novelist, surviving 150+ agent rejections, dumping 70,000 words mid-draft, why AI can't replace the craft of storytelling, and the importance of backing yourself when no one's asking for the work.
Adam Simcox is a novelist, filmmaker, and photographer. He wrote and directed three feature films before transitioning to fiction. His debut film sold to Netflix before it became the Netflix juggernaut that we all know. He is the author of The Dying Squad trilogy and his latest novel, Time Jump (Renegade Books, 3 September 2026). He studied law before switching to a master's in film and documentary production at Salford University. Find him on Instagram at @simcoxadam.
